[SOLVED] The getter 'onReady' isn't defined for the type 'MapController'

The getter 'onReady' isn't defined for the type 'MapController'

I am building a flutter map app with the flutter_map.

When the device is ready, I want to fetch the location and move the map to the location.

However, I'm having issues with my code. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I got the error:

The getter 'onReady' isn't defined for the type 'MapController'.

Below are my codes:

main.dart

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_bloc/flutter_bloc.dart';
import 'package:spot_the_bird/bloc/location_cubit.dart';
import 'package:spot_the_bird/screens/map_screen.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({super.key});

  
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MultiBlocProvider(
      providers: [
        BlocProvider<LocationCubit>(
          create: (context) => LocationCubit()..getLocation(),
        ),
      ],
      child: MaterialApp(
        title: 'Flutter Demo',
        theme: ThemeData(
          appBarTheme: const AppBarTheme(backgroundColor: Color(0xff1746A2)),
          colorScheme: ColorScheme.fromSwatch(primarySwatch: Colors.deepOrange),
        ),
        initialRoute: "/",
        routes: {
          "/": (context) => MapScreen(),
        },
      ),
    );
  }
}
